Findings- Congress finds the following:

(1) While Wall Street continues to reap massive profits, the 2008 global economic crisis they helped cause has destabilized economies and impacted the budgets of the United States and impoverished nations, compromising the ability of governments to address pressing needs.

(2) Currency speculation has destabilizing impacts on the real economy and can contribute to financial crises.

(3) Millions of people around the world have been pushed into poverty because of the global financial crisis, through no fault of their own.

(4) The impacts of climate change, disease, and ill health undermine the economies of developing nations and their ability to contribute to a secure, stable world.

(5) Predictable, adequate, sustainable, long-term funding to address global health and climate change in developing countries at the scale needed does not currently exist.

(6) The United States has been a world leader in fighting against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria and new science has shown that success against these major killers is possible within a generation, yet a greater commitment of resources is needed to save more lives.
